What do modern European hunters wear and what hunting techniques are popular? Rule of thumb is: if you're invited and your party consists of more than 2, leave camo at home or in moderation (ie. only a cap or a mask). While loden and waxed cotton remains popular, modern hunting clothing is made to be comfortable, quiet, sturdy, warm and prefferably tick-proof. As for hunting techniques. -Hunting from a blind is the preferred method. Either low near the ground for birds or in a treestand or elevated blind for larger game. -Driven hunt is a popular second. Takes more people, is more expensive, but very spectacular. The driven hunt comes in many varieties, and is subject to many rules, traditions and rituals which vary by region. -Walking flushing hunt is popular in the wide open agricultural areas as well. Requires good dogs. -Stalking has quite a following as well. Although recently, I've heard a scientist say on a symposium: "95% of the hunters believe they belong to the 5% who can

Wild hare hunting Morocco: A Hunter’s Tale from the Wild Plains I still remember the morning air—cool, dry, and laced with the scent of wild thyme. The sun hadn’t yet crested the horizon when we set out across the scrublands near Benslimane, rifles slung, dogs eager, and hearts pounding. Hare hunting in Morocco isn’t just a sport—it’s a ritual, a test of patience, instinct, and respect for the land. --- 🐇 The Moroccan Hare: Elusive and Legendary The North African hare (Lepus capensis) is a master of deception. Unlike rabbits, hares don’t burrow—they rely on camouflage and speed. Their lean bodies and powerful hind legs make them lightning-fast across rocky terrain. In Morocco, they’re most active at dawn and dusk, preferring solitude and silence. Locals say, “If the hare ran straight, no man could catch it.” And they’re right. These hares thrive in grasslands, vineyards, cork oak forests, and even semi-arid zones. They’re solitary, nocturnal, and notoriously clever. You won’t fin

With a very good memory and a perfect knowledge of its territory the Wild Boar is a fascinating animal to hunt and hard to catch. Wounded, this animal can be very dangerous and won't hesitate to charge dogs and sometimes human beings. We hunt wild boar from mid-August to end of February.

The Otterhound: A Hunter's Companion With a Nose for Adventure As a seasoned hunter, I've always valued a good hunting dog by my side.

An Inuit hunter stands over a dead polar bear. November 26, 1924, USA The Inuit are an ethnic group of indigenous peoples of North America living in the vast northern territories of Canada from the Labrador Peninsula to the mouth of the Mackenzie River, as well as in Alaska. One of the main activities of the Inuit is hunting wild animals. Inuit have made a living from hunting on land, on the sea, on the ice. Through time, marine mammals, terrestrial mammals, fish and birds have been the basis of food and clothing, light and heat, tools and means of transportation, such as dog sleds, kayaks and large skin boats. That way all Inuit live was evolved with the hunting culture. The sustenance of families and settlements has relied heavily on favourable hunting conditions and successful catches. Hunting has therefore traditionally been a key focal point in the organisation of Arctic communities, where roles and responsibilities have been defined by hunting activities. Hunting itself has

How to stay safe while hiking in hunting season. Wearing orange is not the only precaution hikers - and dog owners - are encouraged to take. Fall is popular with all walks of outdoorspeople, including both hikers and hunters. As New York’s hunting season picks up steam and daylight hours dwindle, hiking and biking advocates urge those exploring the woods recreationally to take extra precautions so as to maintain the safety of themselves, their pets and hunters. “Hunting is an activity that’s quite popular and has a long heritage here,” says Andy Mossey, Stewardship & Advocacy Coordinator for The Catskill Center. “As people are getting out and recreating, we should be prepared that we’re sharing the woods with hunters.” Wear orange Hunters are required to wear orange or pink when hunting with a firearm.

Quail Hunting in Utah Do You Hunt Western Quail? If you own a good pair of running shoes — or better yet, a trained hunting dog — hunting Gambel’s quail in southwestern Utah might be a fun adventure this fall. Population Estimates, Where to Hunt Utah’s quail hunt opened Nov. 3. The number of Gambel’s quail has dipped a bit this year, but decent numbers of birds should still be available. You can hunt both Gambel’s and California quail until Dec. 31. (Utah is also home to a small population of scaled quail, but hunting for them is not allowed.) Jason Robinson, upland game coordinator for the Division of Wildlife Resources, says opportunities to hunt California quail in Utah are limited: most California quail are found in Duchesne and Uintah counties on land that’s either privately owned or part of the Ute Indian Reservation.

Training hunting dog puppies is an essential step in cultivating their natural instincts and preparing them for a successful future in the field. The key to effective training lies in starting early, as puppies are most receptive to learning during their first few months of life. Begin with basic obedience commands such as "sit," "stay," and "come," which lay the foundation for more advanced skills. Incorporating play into training is crucial, as puppies learn best when they are engaged and having fun. Use interactive games that mimic hunting scenarios, such as fetch or hide and seek, to encourage their instinctual behaviors. Gradually introduce them to scents and tracking exercises, allowing them to explore their extraordinary olfactory capabilities. Socialization is another fundamental aspect of training hunting puppies. Expose them to various environments, people, and other animals to build their confidence and adaptability. A well-socialized puppy will be more comfortable in the

Hunting with cormorants. China 1949. Mankind has learned to attract animals to its hunting a long time ago. Falconry existed in the Middle Ages, and greyhounds, hounds, terriers, and other hunting dog breeds were traditionally used in Europe. But the people of East Asia managed to surprise everyone. They not only decided to improve the ancient fishing process, but also attracted waterfowl for this purpose — the well-known cormorants. Cormorant hunting is an ancient tradition that has been around for thousands of years. Its essence is that the cormorant hunts fish not for itself, but for the person who taught it. It was the one who taught them, because all the cormorants involved in this process are trained birds. They know their owner very well, navigate well among the boats on the water and obediently give the caught fish. However, there is a small subtlety here. It is very difficult to convince a bird of prey not to eat its prey. No amount of training will be able to kill the

Meet Max, my loyal hunting companion. From the moment we set foot in the forest, Max’s excitement is palpable. His keen senses and unwavering loyalty make every hunting trip an adventure. 🐕✨ One crisp autumn morning, we ventured deep into the woods, the air filled with the scent of pine and the rustle of leaves. Max, with his nose to the ground, led the way. Suddenly, he froze, his ears perked up. I knew he had found something. 🦌🍂 Following his lead, we moved silently through the underbrush. Max’s instincts were spot on; we spotted a majestic deer grazing in a clearing. With a steady hand and a calm breath, I took the shot. Max’s tail wagged furiously as he retrieved our prize. 🏹🌿 But it’s not just about the hunt. It’s about the bond we share, the trust we build, and the memories we create. Max isn’t just a hunting dog; he’s my partner, my friend, and my greatest ally in the wild. 🐾❤️ Here’s to many more adventures with my best friend by my side. 🥂🌲 #HuntingCompanion #Wi

PREDATOR HUNTING—HOW TO GET STARTED THE EASY WAY CLASSIC COYOTE SETUPS There are three basic types of coyote hunts: A silent stand in which you post up and hope to shoot coyotes passing by. A calling stand in which you hunker down and call coyotes into gun range; What I call a “run-and-gun hunt” in which you drive rural roads and stop periodically to call, then set up when you get a response. 1. SILENT STANDS Looking at the silent stand, your standard deer-season treestand or ground blind can work beautifully, especially if it is situated between deer feeding and bedding areas. Those are the same habitats that coyotes work, so as long as the wind is favorable—that is, blowing away from where you expect to see coyotes—then you should expect a shot. This silent-stand hunting is not a numbers game. You are relying on a dog to simply show itself, and if you shoot, or do anything to alert animals that you’re in the area, then you might be in for a long, slow day. But you can make good
